VI TENTH REVISED SHEET NO. 6.320 CANCELS NINTH REVISED SHEET NO. 6.320 Page 1 of 6 RATE SCHEDULE SS-3 CURTAILABLE STANDBY SERVICE Availability: Available throughout the entire territory served by the Company. Applicable: To any customer, other than residential, having on-site generating equipment and requesting interruptible standby service. A customer requesting interruptible standby service is required to take service under this rate schedule if his total generating capability: (1) exceeds 100 kW, (2) supplies at least 20% of his total electrical load and (3) is operated for other than emergency and test purposes. Character of Service: Alternating current, 60 cycle, single-phase or three-phase, at the Company's standard voltage available. Limitation of Service: Resale service not permitted hereunder. Interruptible service under this rate schedule is not subject to interruption during any time period for economic reasons. Interruptible service under this rate schedule is subject to interruption during any time period that electric power and energy delivered hereunder from the Company's available generating resources is required to a) maintain service to the Company's firm power customers and firm power sales commitments or b) supply emergency interchange service to another utility for its firm load obligations only. The Company will not make off-system purchases during such periods to maintain service to interruptible loads except under the conditions set forth in Special Provision No. 3 of this rate schedule. Service under this rate is subject to the Company’s currently effective and filed "General Rules and Regulations for Electric Service." Definitions: “Standby Electric Service” refers to backup or maintenance service or both. “Backup Service” means electric energy or capacity supplied by the Company to replace energy or capacity ordinarily generated by a customer’s own generation equipment during an unscheduled outage of the customer’s generation. “Maintenance Service” means electric energy or capacity supplied by the Company to replace energy or capacity ordinarily generated by a customer’s own generation equipment during a scheduled outage of the customer’s generation. “Supplemental Service” means electric energy or capacity supplied by the Company in addition to that which is normally provided by the customer’s own generation equipment. “Otherwise applicable rate schedule” refers to the rate schedule under which the customer would have received service if the customer had no self-generation. Determination of Standby Service Requirements: The customer may elect either of the following two options for determination of standby service requirements: Option A: 1. The customer shall provide the Company within three (3) days of the end of the billing period the following information for each 30-minute time interval of occurrence of an unscheduled or scheduled outage of the customer's generation: (a) Amount of load in kW ordinarily supplied by customer's generation. (b) Amount of load reduction in kW, if any, as a direct result of customer's generation outage. (Continued on Page No. 2) ISSUED BY: Mark A.

VI FIFTH REVISED SHEET NO. 6.321 CANCELS FOURTH REVISED SHEET NO. 6.321 Page 2 of 6 RATE SCHEDULE SS-3 CURTAILABLE STANDBY SERVICE (Continued from Page No. 1) Determination of Standby Service Requirements: (Continued) Option A: (Continued) 2. For each 30-minute time interval of occurrence of an unscheduled or scheduled outage of the customer's generation, the standby power amount shall be determined in accordance with the following formula: Standby power in kW = Amount of load in kW ordinarily supplied by customer's generation, Minus customer's generation output in kW, Minus amount of load reduction in kW as a direct result of customer's generation outage. Note: In no event shall standby power amount be less than zero. 3. For each 30-minute time interval of non-outages of the customer's generation, the standby power is zero amount. Option B: 1. A determination of the customer's standby power use shall be made for each 30-minute time interval of the billing period in accordance with the following formula: Standby power in kW = Specified Maximum Self-Service Generating Capability in kW, Less a Specified Amount of Load Reduction in kW, if any, that directly results from an outage of the customer's generation, Minus customer's generation output in kW. Note: In no event shall standby power amount be less than zero, nor shall standby power amount exceed the total amount of company-supplied power. 2. Initially, the customer and the Company shall mutually agree upon the customer's Specified Maximum Self-Service Generating Capability. Whenever the Specified Maximum Self-Service Generating Capability is exceeded by a higher amount of actual self-service generation, such greater amount becomes the new specified amount. The customer and the Company shall also mutually agree upon a Specified Amount of Load Reduction, if any, that would be a direct result of an outage of customer’s generation. Where a bona fide change in the customer's generation facilities occurs, the Company and the customer shall agree upon a new Specified Maximum Self-Service Generating Capability and a new Specified Amount of Load Reduction, if any, that would be a direct result of an outage of customer's generation. Determination of Supplemental Service Requirements: A determination of the customer's supplemental power use shall be made for each 30-minute time interval of the billing period in accordance with the following formula: Supplemental Power in kW = Total Company-Supplied Power in kW, Minus Standby Power in kW.

VI SIXTH REVISED SHEET NO. 6.324 CANCELS FIFTH REVISED SHEET NO. 6.324 Page 5 of 6 RATE SCHEDULE SS-3 CURTAILABLE STANDBY SERVICE (Continued from Page No. 4) Special Provisions: 1. The Company may, under the provisions of this rate, require a contract with the customer upon the Company's filed contract form. Whenever the customer increases his electrical load, which increase requires the Company to increase facilities installed for the specific use of the customer, a new Term of Service may be required. 2. The Company will furnish service under this rate at a single voltage. Any equipment to supply additional voltages or any additional facilities for the use of the customer shall be furnished and maintained by the customer. At its option, the Company may furnish, install and maintain such additional equipment upon request of the customer, in which event an additional monthly charge will be made at the rate of 1.67% times the installed cost of such additional equipment. 3. As an essential requirement for receiving curtailable service provided under this rate schedule, the customer shall be strictly responsible for the full curtailment of his standby power requirements upon each request of the Company. Such requests will normally be made during periods of capacity shortages on the Company's system; however, other operating contingencies may result in such requests at other times. The Company shall also have the right to request one additional curtailment each calendar year irrespective of capacity availability or operating conditions. 4. As used in this rate schedule, the term "period of requested curtailment" shall mean a period for which the Company has requested curtailment and for which energy purchased from sources outside the Company's system, pursuant to Special Provision No. 6, is not available. If such energy can be purchased, the terms of Special Provision No. 6 will apply and a period of requested curtailment will not be deemed to exist while such energy remains available. 5. In the event a customer electing curtailable service has not complied with his curtailment responsibility for any period of requested curtailment during the current billing period, the customer will additionally be billed 125% of the difference in standby rate charges between this rate schedule and that of Rate Schedule SS-1, Firm Standby Service, for each billing period from the current month to the most recent prior billing period in which curtailment was requested, not to exceed a total of twelve (12) billing periods. 6. To minimize the frequency and duration of curtailments requested under this rate schedule, the Company will attempt to purchase additional energy, if available, from sources outside the Company's system during periods for which curtailment would otherwise be requested. The Company will also attempt to notify any customer, desirous of such notice, in advance when such purchases are imminent or as soon as practical thereafter where advance notice is not feasible. Similar notification will be provided upon termination of such purchases. Any energy used hereunder during these periods will be subject to the additional charges set forth in the second paragraph of this provision. Customers may avoid these higher charges by curtailing their usage during such periods. In the event a customer elects not to curtail, the customer will be required to pay an additional charge, in lieu of the otherwise applicable energy charges (Non-Fuel Energy Charge, Capacity Cost Recovery Factor, and Fuel Cost Recovery Factor), provided hereunder, based on the customer's proportionate share of the higher cost of such purchased energy, plus 3.0 mills per kWh, for all consumption hereunder during the period for which curtailment would have otherwise been requested. The cost of such purchased energy shall be based on the average cost of all purchased power and energy provided under this rate schedule and under similar provisions in Rate Schedules IS-1, IST-1, CS-1, CST-1, IS-2, IST-2, CS-2, CST-2, CS-3, CST-3 and SS-2 during the corresponding calendar month. If, for any reason during such period, the customer is notified that the energy purchased from outside sources is no longer available, the terms of this Special Provision will cease to apply and curtailment will be required for the remainder of such period. In the event a customer elects to curtail irrespective of the availability of additional energy purchased by the Company and does not exceed his Non-Curtailable Demand during the period for which curtailment would have otherwise been requested, the customer will incur no responsibility for the payment of any additional cost of such energy.

VI FIFTH REVISED SHEET NO. 6.325 CANCELS FOURTH REVISED SHEET NO. 6.325 Page 6 of 6 RATE SCHEDULE SS-3 CURTAILABLE STANDBY SERVICE (Continued from Page No. 5) Special Provisions: (Continued) 7. Customers taking service under this rate schedule who desire to transfer to a firm rate schedule will be required to give the Company written notice at least sixty (60) months prior to such transfer. Such notice shall be irrevocable unless the Company or the customer receives a waiver from the Florida Public Service Commission. 8. The customer shall allow the Company to install time recording metering on the electrical output of all customer-owned generation equipment. The permitted metering location(s) must be accessible to Company personnel for testing, inspection, maintenance, and retrieval of recording generation output data. The customer shall reimburse the Company for the installed cost of the metering and be charged 0.50% per month of the installed cost of the metering equipment for operation and maintenance of the equipment by the Company. 9. Where the Company and the customer agree that the customer's service requirements are totally standby or totally supplemental, the Company shall bill the customer accordingly and not require metering of the customer's generation output. 10. Upon commencement of service under this rate schedule, if the customer does not make an election of either Option A or Option B under the Determination of Standby Service Requirements, Option B will be applied. A customer may exercise the election of Option A one time. 11. In the event the customer electing Option A does not provide outage information to the Company within three (3) days of the end of the billing period, the Company shall render a bill based on all company-supplied power being supplemental service. If the customer provides outage information for the current billing period prior to the end of the next billing period, the Company shall issue a revised billing and assess the customer an additional Customer Charge. 12. For determination of standby service requirements under Option A, the customer should maintain accurate generation performance records available for review by the Company for verifying outage information utilized in the billing procedure. The customer shall cooperate with the Company in providing additional information the Company deems necessary to validate appropriate billing determinants. If the Company deems that insufficient outage information is being provided by the customer for appropriate determination of standby service requirements under Option A, the Company will subsequently require that this determination be performed under Option B. 13. For an amount of load reduction directly resulting from an outage of the customer's generation to be recognized in the determination of standby service requirements, the customer must satisfactorily demonstrate this capability initially and be subject to periodic verification upon request by the Company. 14. The described procedures herein for determining standby and supplemental requirements may require modification during a period of requested curtailment. In this event all power and energy requirements are considered supplemental to the extent that the total power requirement does not exceed the customer's otherwise maximum 30-minute supplemental demand for the current billing period. Any requirement exceeding this level is considered standby. If this should result in a standby requirement which exceeds the customer's selfgenerating capability, such excess shall be considered additional supplemental. 15. If the actual maximum 30-minute standby power supplied by the Company exceeds the prior billing month's Specified Standby Capacity, the customer shall be billed on the excess amount for previous billings rendered up to twelve (12) months under the rate schedule for (1) distribution capacity and (2) generation and transmission capacity, at a rate of 125% of the corresponding standby service charges.
